AUSSIE PROGRESSIVE CHESS

Same as Scottish Progressive Chess but a move series also ends as soon as a piece is captured.

A game sample:

1. e4
2. d4 d:e4
3. Qh5d5:d8+
4. K:d8
5. Ke2 c4 g3 Bh3 B:c8
6. e5 Nf6 h5 Nc6 Ke7 R:c8
7. a4 h4 Nh3 Ra3d3d8:c8
8. Nb4 a5 Ke6 Bc5 Ng4 f5 f4 R:c8
9. b3 d3 Rd1 Ba3 B:b4
10 e3 Rd8 e4 Kf5 B:b4
11 d4 d5 f3 f:g4+
12 Ke5 g6 Bc5 Rf8 f3+
13 Ke1 d6,7,8Q,h8,h6 Rd5++

. . . . . r . .
. p p . . . . .
Q . . . . . p .
p . b R k . . p
O . O . p . O O
. O . . p p O N
. . . . . . . .
. N . . K . . .

This is also a slower chess variant than the traditional progressive ones. One capture per turn maximum, will set the attention on tactical positions that can take advantage of that new restriction.
